Whoa, they even gave out a username to identify themselves? This mod's a rebel. It's about time a mod is willing to be held accountable for something.

The question is, how long will they be able to keep it up? When one of the mods started banning people for whining about Reddit, that prompted people to whine about Reddit even more and eventually that movement fizzled out. Will this be the same, or are we seeing someone with true determination?

I always wondered why /a/ doesn't have one of those mod sticky threads the other boards have. Maybe mods should add one to really enforce the rules.

i don't fucking understand the difference? /a/ has always deepthroated mod cock, what is different now?

You're really, really reaching for reasons to make you look right when even you know a sticky with at least a link to the rules would help.

Okay, so judging by your standards, stuff like pic related should not be allowed on /a/?

Why don't mods do this more often, and on other boards? They get to feel great about their moderation (MODS=GODS), faggots get banned, and moderation is more visible, it's a win win.

With that bullshit lopsided moderation? Not when they protect generals that aren't even related to anime or manga, or generals which belong on other boards.
That thread was just an example of a mod creating an obvious bait thread and bait posts in order to make a public spectacle of it so the sycophants suck their e-peen.
OP, you're either a newfag, a shit eating retard, or a hotpocket.

To paraprahse this post: >>846792
Yeah, good work mod-kun. Clean up a couple of obvious bait threads while leaving the rest.
Great fucking work.
Don't thank the fuckwits for their appalling moderation of this board.
The new Goonsquad encourages /a/ to be dumping grounds for horny teenagers and horny manchildren to be able to spam countless template threads under the pretence that it will generate /c/ but mostly lewd, borderline /e/ tier imagedumps. On the other hand these mods are also responsible for both allowing and protecting general threads, ones which are full of blogging, 3DPD crap, and crossboarders who don't care about /a/. Here is perfect example of the threads they protect: >>>/a/150046988
Posts typical of these vague non-/a/ specific generals they allow on /a/:
>>>/a/150064626
>>>/a/149944972
>>>/a/149954975
>>>/a/149960988

Also, look at moderation doing damage control in relation to how they have allowed generals to remain on /a/:
https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/150083529/

Thanking mods for getting rid of a couple of obviously mod made bait threads while treating the board the way they do is like thanking your torturer for removing the gap from your mouth while he keeps on tightening the thumb screws.

Yes, you're damn right I'm pissed off about this shit. /a/ gets treated like a fucking toilet.

Boy can't wait until all threads with anime girls are moved to /c/ and /e/ and I can enjoy /a/ consisting solely of dragonball threads

>>848001
Read the rules and learn that they aren't image dump boards.

>>848002
In an extremely strict sense, yes. But it's official, and while it's still coming very close to the line, it's more humorous with it's intentions. Personally I would allow that, but only if people would reply with mature posts that aren't ogling over a naked anime girl, and if it wasn't some kind of request for naked anime girls. There's no real reason to post that except to get someone hard it could go either way depending on how people reply to it and why it is posted.

So mods have said no generals, no request threads, and no threads like "Shh! Cute girl is sleeping" (which is often just a thinly veiled general, anyway).

So that begs the question of what do we talk about, then?

>>848076
Not him but how is this a valid reply.All you did was modify his question such that he shows enthusiasm for "crosses, circles, [or] grids", and strawman that it's still a broad "tic-tac-toe" thread. And that's your argument?

no enthusiasm allowed i guess? And "editions" are meaningless for so many threads anyway

Moving threads to different boards is not a good way to deal with them. Especially when you move them to places where their normal conduct breaks the rules, like /c/.

>>848075
Hahaha what the fuck
Is this guy for real or just somebody trying to shit on Kino?

>>848085
Have a look through a couple of those DJT threads. For a long time the shitposters have been forcing it to become nothing but another /int/ general and they would spack out when you reminded them that the thread was on /a/.
Now the shitposters have their wish and got their way all while the generalfags who wanted to protect the hivemind ended up screwing themselves over in the end because if there weren't such faggots they could have forced the off topic shit out of those threads and made them entirely about anime and manga. Instead they made them about visual novels, blogging and 3DPD. I bet those shitposters who thought they could stay protected in /a/ forever are feeling pretty foolish right now.

>>848098
Sup sakurautist

>>848098
Again, you have no idea what you're talking about.

All the mod is doing is destroying order and replacing it with disorder. Megumin Mondays are going to turn into "H-Hey guys, Konosuba thread" threads, with Megumin images dominating, and posted at random days of the week. Those people were even diversifying and partitioning their time out so that they would post Aqua on Wednesdays. If their threads keep getting closed then they'll just spill out and make a mess of things.

Obviously telling you this isn't going to convince you, since you're clearly determined to be right, but I haven't gone on /a/ to discuss anime in ages. I go there to faff about with the sad sacks in /yys/, and to fap. You're misunderstanding what I'm saying as "there are only fap threads on the catalog, nothing else" when what I'm ACTUALLY saying is that there are discussion threads, but they typically get overwhelmed by generals and template very quickly, and what discussion there is either consists of "THIS girl will win the MCbowl" "no THIS girl will" or in the case of a select few series, ACK sysmatically destroys the thread every time. You have to get inordinately lucky to actually have a good conversation about an anime that isn't Code Geass, Tatami Galaxy, etc., and it shouldn't be that way.

Of course it's up again. If you delete threads because you feel like it and the deletion isn't supported by the written rules, then you'll never be rid of them unless they destroy themselves.

>this thread
Someone linked /qa/ on /a/ a while ago, you know...
Really makes me think

Mods please delete Jojo generals once the anime finishes.

I want to say something that's probably going to get lost in all the discussion. Regardless of who's right or wrong here, I have to respect /a/ for one thing: It's clear that a bunch of people from /a/ are coming to /qa/ because of this, but instead of spamming threads about the matter like /pol/ would, they're polite enough to keep it in one thread. I have a lot of respect for /a/ as a board because of this. They have their flaws, but they are still a board that the rest of this site should strive to be like.

Question to /a/ users
Are "What should I expect/What am I in for?" threads tolerated? Because I can't stand those threads.

I see it as a form of spoon feeding and it clogs up the catalog, especially when you consider that the OP had the intention of playing/watching whatever regardless so they can see for themselves.

Hi trump

>>848216
this post is art

>>848211
I don't like those either. It's like the OP wants to be told what to think so that they don't have an opinion that steps out of line with the hivemind. Plus it subtly implies that whatever they're about to watch is some sort of trainwreck when it's often a very enjoyable show.

>>848211
Why do people even make those threads? Do they want to be spoiled? Do they want other people to think for them?

>>848220
it's a way to trick people into talking about the show in earnesty instead of shitflinging

>>848217
If our president can say "Wrong." and end the argument, I don't see why I can't.

>>848222
Pretty sad that people have to be baited into discussing something on their board. Wouldn't it be better to watch or play something form an opinion and then discuss it?

>>848224
>Wouldn't it be better to watch or play something form an opinion and then discuss it?
Those threads don't incite enough replies as "Why is X so shit"?

>>848222
>>848224
That's retarded anyway because those threads do nothing but bait shitflinging. "This is my chance to trigger all those people who like and/or hate it!"

>>848207
Is he fucking serious?

Where is the anime in his post?

That is just pure shitposting

Look at the replies that it spowned

Just provoking the mods in every way and asking baldly for a ban

And yet he comes here pretending to be the victim

Jesus Christ have mercy on our souls

>>848227
Um, it's clear that he samefagged those replies too. So yeah, he was shitposting hard.

Show me your logic. You say that he was samefagging. What made you say that? To me it only looks like you didn't like that some of the responses actually went with his joke, and so you conclude that they must have been samefag replies.

>>848257
Arguments without evidence can be dismissed without evidence you illogical fruitcake. Don't say "This is so!" and then complain that somebody replies "That is not so!"

>>848259

>>848259
He might be new, but he is smart, he have understood the rules to perfection, and he is doing all the board good.

He might 10% not do it right but that's what the board is for, for correcting his mistakes.

They all are so happy and thankful that he showed up.

>>848271
>Having quality posts about their hobby and what tha board has as a topic is not fun
Your definition of fun is just different than theirs
I advice you to go to certain boards such as /b/ for real pure authentic shitposting

>>848271
>shitposting is fun
You need to leave.

>>848273
The quality of /a/ dropped because /a/ gets large influxes of newfags but is too autistic to call them out for being faggots. Simultaneously, /a/ is also elitist and convinces itself that it's better than other boards. So /a/ has some of the most bold and boisterous newfags outside of /b/. It's only natural that it sucks to post there.

>>848342
Self-moderation never existed in 4chan.
People were never taught to ignore what they don't like. Instead users developed shitty memes like "sagebombing" or thinking sage is a negative thing, causing moot to make sage invisible.

>>848345
What are you on, you schizo fuck? You think that isn't what I'm talking about?

2) Why a general about Japanese does not fit on the Japanese culture board

>>848369
Why did they base her on a Russian woman living and in the west by nowadays western standards?
Why not base her on a Russian woman living by Russian standards?
Why did they make Volsakya only a part of the background story that doesn't have anything to do with the Gameplay?
Designs like Volskaya should have been applied to the Russian Hero

>>848377
This is why I've always hated public moderation (like the shitty red messages from SA).
They do nothing but attract more shitposting and metaposting.

>>848379
I have no problem with "generals" but I guess I can't talk when I spend a lot of time on 2ch. It's a problem here because we've got such a low number of maximum threads at a time. 2ch boards have a max of 1000 threads at a time per board so it isn't much of a problem there.

Also /int/ was made for discussion of languages. /jp/ isn't (or wasn't, I don't know anymore) a Japanese culture board, it was supposed to be kind of like a nijiura with a lot of Touhou.

>>848372
90% of what happened to day was splendid. /a/ last few days was suffering a lot.

>>848386
Do you live in Japan? If not how can you post on 2ch with the geo and proxy ban?

>>848383
When you say Volskaya are you referring to the woman from the Sombra trailer? She doesn't seem like much of a fighter.

There will probably be more Russian heroes. We have two Japanese, three American, two Egyptian, two Australian, etc. Russia is a world superpower so I'd be surprised if they didn't have more.

>>848386
True
/int/ is the language learning board
/int/ has a Japanese general constantly up for learning of language

/jp/ is for weeb interests

It's otaku culture, and while the language does help you integrate, language itself is not a part of it. /int/ has had a Japanese language general for years, predating most if not all others there. It always seemed silly to me for two boards to have a general for the same subject, boatsluts included.
Japanese history? /his/
Japanese politics? /pol/
Japanese paper folding? /po/
Japanese food? /ck/
Japanese toys? /toy/? I know there's buyfag threads, but I never pay attention to them.

>>848379
>Why generals are even bad?
This was discussed countless times on /qa/. Search the archive.
>Why a general about Japanese does not fit on the Japanese culture board
Japanese language =/= Japanese culture
Also /int/ is language threads belong.

It'd be easier to remake /lang/ as a non-shitposting /int/.

Certain boards like /tv/ and /int/ do need a more serious discussion board. More in depth about that subject's culture. But unfortunately it didn't succeed. Hiro tried it with /tv/ with adding a new board (I don't remember its name but it'll show error 403 and there are screencaps of the few days of its life) but the shitposters from /v/ flooded like no tomorrow to there.
I believe it has to do with /tv/ and /int/ being full of a mainstream userbase, really not internet deep userbase. Or maybe a young userbase or newfag userbase that only likes shitposting and dank maymays. Or I don't know why.

Bullshit, just by existing they fragment the community. Generals encourage people to isolate themselves in only the threads they like without engaging with the rest of the board and attract crossboarders because now it's not "you have to learn the culture of the entire board" it's "you have to learn the culture of this 1 thread" further destroying the community. Boards like /a/, /g/, and /v/ used to be much more unified than they are now.

Don't bring up this "board culture" bullshit.
>Antithetical to imageboard culture which is that threads created when they are needed and threads dying when interest is lost.
Board culture is simply posting without a name. Anything else is something you made up to fit with your narrative.
Hell, general threads have existed on 2ch and Futaba before 4chan fucking existed.

>>848415
>they fragment the community
Dude it's an anonymous forum. Cut this shit out.

>What if people want to continue talking about something even after it hits bump limit or gets bumped off?
Then it has already become a literal chatroom. See this as an example:
>>>/g/ptg

We really do need /ag/

Certain anime just conserve a userbase that keeps discussing it for quite a long while

And ofc for the new airing anime that needs long discussion threads

But if they stay on /a/ I mean it's okay since there isn't another new home for them

>>848420
You don't need identifiers to share a culture retard.

>>848427
I'm saying anonymous forums are places to talk about things, not jerk each other off over something as banal as "culture".

>>848425
there's /e/, man
/e/ threads on /a/ are filled with newfags that saw the new board banner and came flooding lately (it just got selected)
As you said /a/ is a slow board, so how does /e/ threads get bumped and filled so quickly if the board is slow?

>>848426
We should get 45 anime/manga boards like 2ch.

>>848430
Then to be fair to everyone all image dumping threads should be deleted from /a/.

>>848433

Four nijiura (Anime/Flipside)

2D Live (aka play-by-play)
2D Neta (aka memes)

Ah, you're one of those people who value making "OC" and "having fun" over having a decent conversation, and think our "culture" is what separated us from other forums instead of the fact you don't need to register or attach a username to your posts.
I don't think we'll ever agree on this, then.

They're not mutually exclusive. Why on earth would you prefer current 4chan where everyone is bitter and hates each other, nothing interesting ever happens, and every board looks exactly the same day in and day out to the good old days?

>>848449

Right, sorry.
We could do with having a board for OC and one for discussion, though.

>Why on earth would you prefer current 4chan
I don't. I've fucking hated 4chan since at least 2010.

>where everyone is bitter and hates each other
I blame /b/ and /pol/ for giving leverage to the media to make newcomers believe this is how all of 4chan acts.

>nothing interesting ever happens
Talking about stuff I like with people who also like it is interesting most of the time.

>the good old days?
Maybe I'm overly critical but I don't miss the old days that much.
I mean, I'd take them over nowadays any time, of course, but I feel like we could do better, a synthesis of newbies and oldies.

Gues, don't you think that generals do in reality keep the discussion going on?

Now hear me out

Look at what happened to /v/ when they seperated the generals from it, it bcame a shitposting mess

Singular individual posts can easily derive into shitposting

Newcommers can easily mistake what sort of individual threads they should make and can easily start shitposting

The generals on /a/ are and you can't deny it overall threads for deeply discussion everything about certain anime

And them being constantly bumped to the front page on the catalog, when newcommers see that they'll get the idea that the board is really not about shitposting

And besides, video games rceive constant updates and expansions and sequels and prequels etc

Anime is not like that, one fix anime and few more seasons of it

Old classic anime have been discussed to death, and to this day thanks to generals and them keeping the discussion side of the board up they still allow for certain threads about unique old anime to be brought up


You think moot didn't do /ag/ just because he didn't think it through?

>>848457
>still allow for certain threads about unique old anime
still allow for certain unique threads about old anime

>>848457
I don't think encouraging generals is a good idea even though I don't dislike them.
Honestly, a lot of these problems could be solved if more boards were made, like getting an "Anime/Manga Saloon" instead of calling it "Anime/Manga Generals". I think naming is important.

The best OC arises from discussion, a board solely for OC already exists and it's dead as fuck >>>/i/
Or if you need another example look at canv.as. Remember that shitty web 2.0 bullshit moot made that tried to create OC without discussion and crashed and burned spectacularly?

>but I feel like we could do better, a synthesis of newbies and oldies.
I don't disagree which is why banning generals is a good first step. lolsorandum humor is out of style but god knows 4chan has gotten stale. Reposts honestly should be an instant ban.

This mod is certainly doing a lot of good by purging /e/ stuff outside of /a/
This mod is also certainly doing a lot of good by purging spoonfeeding outside of /a/
But this mod is certainly doing no good by purging generals outside of /a/

>>848457
Ah, the good Kirino.

Possible fix: Make /ag/ the first "Small board" on the site, with half as many pages as usual. I don't think we'd have much trouble reaching 75.

Hiro said 4chan is going through financial problems, though I don't know if that is still the case after J-List came back and with new people (maybe? I think just very very very few) buying passes for the new added features like the cooldown posting time in addition to no captcha, and maybe also the clover? maybe?

But I seriously think seperating the generals from /a/ and then adding a new board for anime shitposting and memes will not go well

It worked for Japanese imageboards but that is because they are just like that, their minds do not function like other parts of the worlds, they follow the rules so strictly and such, and you have to remember that not only western countries are using 4chan but also certain third and second world countries. I am not being racist I am just saying what I think are known facts. And 4chan is overall not like 2ch. In a lot of aspects.

Having two boards with individual posts about same topic, they will quickly become the same, unless the mods do some extra fucking 24/7 extreme hard work to constantly keep the non shitposting board to become one.

Fuck spoonfeeding though, /wsg/ was created especially for that, keep that shit outside of /a/ for god's sake

>>848477
I meant /wsr/ sorry

I don't understand a thing. Why not make a sticky on /a/ to specify that all anime requests should stay on /wsr/ and /e/ stuff belonging to /a/ etc?

A sticky would reduce by a lot all of this in vein mod work

Oh wait, when /wsr/ was first got created a sticky about it was made on /a/ and everybody liked it no? Why was it removed? It would help a lot imo

>>848481
because that would be spoonfeeding the rules

Is it time for /ag/?

>>848483
I hope people when people read that safe work requests belong on /wsr/ (the newly added part of GR16) they understand that it includes anime suggestions and stuff like that

Now that this is on page 2, it's time for a second thread. I'm thinking of calling it "/a/ MODERATION GENERAL".

>>848508
I mean a sticky inside of the board to remind would do no bad, reminding is always good, a lot of boards have stickies reminding the rules, why would /a/ stay the exception?

>>848463
>But this mod is certainly doing no good by purging generals outside of /a/
Why?

/ag/ would solve everyone's problems. You say "but then all discussion will go to /ag/ and there will be no point in using /a/", but supposedly the majority of /a/ doesn't like generals and would simply avoid /ag/ like the plague and keep posting on /a/ like usual.

>>848524
see >>848474 and >>848457 ofc
give your thoughts?

>>848528
just like /vg/ solved /v/?
